Visualizing Feature Maps in Deep Neural Networks using DeepResolve - A Genomics Case Study, Ge Liu, David Gifford

2017 Contribution talk

Abstract:

Although many powerful visualization tools have been developed to interpret neural network decisions in input space, methods to interpret feature map space remain limited. Most existing tools examine a network’s response to a specific input sample and thus are locally faithful to that sample. We introduce DeepResolve, a gradient ascent based method that visualizes intermediate layer feature maps in an input independent manner. We examine DeepResolve’s capability to 1) discover network linear and non-linear combinatorial logic and summarize overall knowledge of a class, 2) reveal key features for a target class, 3) assess a network’s activeness in pattern learning and network’s vulnerability in feature space, and 4) analyze multi-task class similarity at high resolution. We demonstrate the value of DeepResolve on synthetic and experimental genomic datasets, and DeepResolve reveals biologically interesting observations from the experimental data.
